Tower Hamlets councillors are the elected representatives of the residents of Tower Hamlets borough. For the purpose of democratic representation, the borough is divided into 17 local electoral districts called "wards". Each ward is represented by three councillors.

To promote local decision-making, neighbouring wards are grouped together to create local area partnerships. There are eight of these across Tower Hamlets and they are displayed in the map below.
